EdIA Edicola è la APP ufficiale di Edizioni L’Informatore Agrario, Casa Editrice di Verona che si occupa da oltre 70 anni di informazione agricola, distinguendosi per autonomia e autorevolezza. Edizioni L’Informatore Agrario nasce nel 1945 con la testata “L’Informatore Agrario”, prima rivista italiana a occuparsi di agricoltura. Il settimanale è rivolto ai professionisti del mondo agricolo ed è ancor oggi rivista leader del settore. Negli anni successivi EdIA va incontro alle richieste del mondo dell’agricoltura non professionale con il mensile “Vita in Campagna”, che diviene in breve tempo la rivista per gli amanti del verde più diffusa a livello nazionale. Nasce poi “MAD - Macchine Agricole Domani”, mensile tecnico rivolto a chi si interessa di macchine agricole, i cui contenuti spaziano dalle ultime novità del settore alle prove in campo, al mercato e all’attualità. “Vivere La Casa in Campagna”, infine, è il trimestrale che affronta argomenti “tecnici” quali ristrutturazione edilizia, risparmio energetico, salute e sicurezza, ma che abbraccia anche temi “pratici” come il fai da te, la cucina e articoli per bambini e ragazzi. Edizioni L’Informatore Agrario è però anche libri, DVD e contenuti multimediali. Ogni anno vedono la pubblicazione prodotti editoriali diversificati a seconda del target di riferimento: approfondimenti e supporti tecnici per gli agricoltori professionisti, compendi utili, puntuali ma di agevole consultazione per gli hobbisti ecc. EdIA Edicola si propone come una nuova frontiera di comunicazione per l’Azienda: grazie ad essa e ai canali YouTube e Social possiamo condividere le nostre attività con tutti, sempre e ovunque. In EdIA Edicola trovano spazio pubblicazioni e progetti speciali inediti arricchiti anche da contenuti multimediali per offrire all’utilizzatore una consultazione agevole e un’esperienza di formazione e informazione sempre più completa. Introducing EdIA Edicola: the Edizioni L’Informatore Agrario official APP. Edizioni L’Informatore Agrario is a Verona based publishing house with more than 70 years of experience in autonomous and independent agricultural media communication. The publishing house was founded in 1945 with the magazine “L’Informatore Agrario”. It was the first ever magazine in Italy dedicated to agriculture. This weekly publication targets agriculture professionals and it is still today the leading magazine of this sector. In the following years, EdIA catered to the needs of non-professional agriculture amateurs with monthly magazine “Vita in Campagna” (“Country Living”). This publication quickly established itself to be the most read magazine countrywide for country enthusiasts. “MAD - Macchine Agricole Domani” was then founded, a technical monthly magazine dedicated to agricultural machinery with latest news of the sector, field tests, markets and current trends. Last but not least, “Vivere La casa in Campagna” (“Country House Living”) is a quarterly magazine that deals simply but clearly with “technical” subjects related to building renovation, energy saving, health and safety, paired with more “hands-on” subjects such as DIY and cuisine, with articles for children and young adults as well. Edizioni L’informatore Agrario, in addition to this, also publishes books, DVDs and multimedia contents. We publish each year a highly diversified array of editorial products according to reference targets: in depth reports and technical supports for professional farmers, useful, precise but easily accessible compendia for hobbyists etc. EdIA Edicola is the final frontier of communication for the Company. Together with our YouTube and Social channels, we intend to share our activities as much as possible, with everyone, anytime.
